Don't take this the wrong way but I wasn't expecting Grann to be so well spoken and charismatic. This book was amazing and I'm buying multiple copies to send to friends and family.
Okay ... I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but he's an author. They generally are articulate and well spoken. 😊 Thank you for your commentary on this book. I've heard of him, but I just saw him on 60 Minutes and I want to read this book too! He really does his research. I hope you got to see the episode of 60 Minutes tonight.
As a descendant of a man who died from disease in the War of Jenkin's Ear I was finally glad more would learn about this obscure chapter in British history. I enjoyed the book but was surprised how suddenly it ended. But like he says in the epilogue it is all the untold stories of the ex-slave and native mutineers that loom so large in the end.
Should I read the lost city of z or the wavers next? I’m in the same boat as you. I’m just about done with killers of the flower moon but I’m not sure which book to pick up next

I'm about a third of a way through this book right now, and I'm enjoying it immensely!
Me too! Chapter 7.
"Building that floating civilization" as we watch the current version fall apart.
I just discovered him and I can't put his books down
